I have done Dine with Shamu many many times and love it. Its a great experience and I highly recommend it. However I have never done Fireside Feast. I will be doing my first one this year. So I really cant compare the two. So the way I will say it is if you are wanting an all out Christmas Experience go with Santa's Fireside Feast. Otherwise I would go with Dine with Shamu. Never have been disappointed there and its really neat to learn how the trainers work with the orca's etc.

We did the Fireside Feast bundle last night and it was amazing ! For the price, just the priority seating was worth it--- we are in wdw for 10 days and we already know that sea world will be our fave day of the trip--- they really do a nice job for the holidays

I did the fireside feast bundle two nights ago (11/28) and I was satisfied with the food - it's a pre-plated 'thanksgiving' meal, turkey, ham, stuffing, mashed, gravy, mac, green beans. Because it's pre-plated the line moves pretty fast.

Dine with Shamu is an actual buffet, the food was good as well, however I ended up standing in a fairly slow buffet line.

I don't think one has 'better' food than the other - they are both decent meals.

I agree with the previous posters that the priority seating for the shows is a great benefit - not having to spend 30-45 minutes in line before each of the 3 different shows (and getting FOTL for Polar Express), especially as it gets busier closer to the holidays, was totally worth it!

And you get to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus

We just went to Santa's Fireside Feast last night and I can't recommend it highly enough. The food was just OK, but the decorations, characters and interaction with the kids was absolutely fantastic. We are already planning to go again next year!

I just did Santa's Fireside Feast last night with DBF. I've done Dine with Shamu twice. DBF liked the food at Dine with Shamu much better. I couldn't tell a huge difference in the food, but if I really had to decide, I guess the food at Dine with Shamu is a bit better.

The experience at Santa's Fireside Feast was great, however. There was great service, and the interaction with Santa, Mrs. Claus, and the elves was fun. I'm very glad we got to do it.
